Assuming it works, this is a game changer. Currently I use DBeaver for SQL linting/autocomplete which is great.

What about parsing Py/C++/Rs/Java for SQL statements in strings? Perhaps by using multiline strings, VS Code could use a different language server depending on wether the line is within an SQL multiline string? That would allow statically checking and autocompleting SQL statements within strings in code. What are your thoughts on that?

In an ideal world there is static checkability of everything. Somehow, ideally, potential errors must be caught before runtime. For many type safe languages we can do this. With SQL we can do this now thanks to this language server. However, will it work when the SQL is embedded in code?
